Seventeen (4) There are many women, but there are not many women
"Yes, that's going to bother the second aunt and the eldest brother." Lowering his head at an angle where no one could see, a slight smile bloomed.
"What does this kid say? It's all a family that says something troublesome. The second aunt smiled and scolded, muttered in her heart, and looked at Dongfang Yan carefully as she spoke.
This kid doesn't seem to understand anything on the surface, and he can't find flaws in his speech, but the sentence 'I'm tired of the second aunt and eldest brother' is also worth figuring out.
She can obviously say 'Yan'er knows' or 'Yan'er understands', but now this sentence has to bring her and Dongfang Cheng, which is equivalent to vaguely pointing out the meaning of 'who is in charge of this family' that she originally wanted to express.
At this time, Lu Danqing glanced at the third aunt and the fourth aunt, and sure enough, the third aunt seemed to hear something when she heard this, and looked at her with an unkind face, but the fourth aunt looked over as if she hadn't heard anything, and lowered her head to sip tea and couldn't see her emotions.
Lu Danqing is not worried about this at this time, it is said that the third aunt has been fighting for so many years, but the backyard of the inner pavilion has been fighting and fighting for many years, and it is false to say that he is not tired, it is still a little troublesome.
At this time, she was even more frightened, if Dongfang Yan's words were unintentional, it would be fine, but if this girl deliberately said that, then it was really terrible to be so scheming at this age.
She couldn't help but look at Dongfang Yan's expression, but it was an ordinary child's innocent and very happy expression when she heard that someone could take care of her, but it was too difficult to pretend, but at this time, there was no flaw at all, naturally, she was more willing to believe in the former.
After all, it is really sensational for a five-year-old girl to have such a deep scheming, no wonder she doesn't believe it, after all, people like Dongfang Yan should belong to one in ten thousand, and the chance of crossing such a slim one has been encountered, and now everything is naturally possible.
In the blink of an eye, the two have been fighting for several rounds, and the second aunt has won a small victory, but she feels even more strange at this time, it seems that she did not win because of her own ability, but there is a sense of powerlessness that hit the cotton with a punch, as if Dongfang Yan's foundation is unstable and she doesn't want to be entangled to the end, so she deliberately lets it go gently.
This is the first shiver that Lu Danqing didn't know how to fight today, frowning slightly tangled.
At this time, he was no longer entangled, and led Dongfang Yan to introduce others, and at this time, he personally got out of his seat, and led Dongfang Yan to walk in front of the third aunt, looking even more caring and friendly, "This is your third aunt." β
As he spoke, he took a slight direction with his hand, and pointed to the boy standing behind the third aunt, "This is Dongfang Shuo, the child just now is Dongfang Fei, both of them are three years older than you, and they are twins." At this time, he was carefully observing Dongfang Yan's expression, there must be irreconcilable contradictions between the concubine and the eldest daughter, and whether Dongfang Yan was willing to call Dongfang Fei, who was three years older than him, a sister, could tell whether it was a real fox or a fake fox.
Dongfang Yan didn't seem to be aware of it, and only smiled and shouted, "Second brother." But she didn't mention Dongfang Fei at all, the second aunt had the intention to test it, but Dongfang Yan didn't take it, and she gave up at this time.
Dongfang Yan only sighed tired, as if he hadn't been so tired for a few years, and at this time he was even more sure: talking to a woman is a very laborious thing, especially a room of women who want to be her stepmother.
After saluting, the third aunt snorted coldly and didn't care, but Dongfang Shuo greeted warmly with a smile, and was more enthusiastic than Dongfang Cheng in her words and smiles, but Dongfang Yan was keenly aware of the chill.
Being stared at by him has a feeling of being stared at by a wolf hidden behind the grass in the mountains and forests, Dongfang Yan doesn't know why he makes such an association, but he believes very much in the intuition of danger that he has trained in his previous life for more than ten years.
At this time, the third aunt seemed to be unable to help it after all, and opened her mouth in a strange way: "When is it the second aunt's turn to make irresponsible remarks?" The tiger is not at home, but he sees the monkey as the overlord. β
The second aunt's face stiffened for a moment, but she didn't squeeze out a sincere smile after all, and smiled dryly: "Look at what the third aunt said, I just helped to mention some Yan'er, Yan'er just came back and didn't know much about the house, so I can't let it go?" If the third aunt wants to, she can also come to help out. β
At this time, I was secretly complaining in my heart, it was all the war provoked by this girl, but at this time, I was crying bitter, but I definitely didn't dare to pull Dongfang Yan to cushion her back, and I originally said: "Now this family goose is the serious master" can lead a basin of dirty water to Dongfang Yan, but Dongfang Yan, this girl, can provoke a war in the inner courtyard with a simple single sentence, and she can splash this dirty water back with a single sentence.
Even if she was worried, the second aunt would rather spend a few words to send the third aunt away, after all, she didn't know if this war without gunpowder offended Dongfang Yan again, and the Quartet would compete for hegemony, the situation would be even more chaotic, and I don't know how lively the backyard would be in the future.
The third aunt was stunned for a long time, and only one sentence came out, "It's better that I'm too worried." But after all, he gritted his teeth and snorted coldly, and stopped talking.
The second aunt didn't seem to be interested in hypocrisy, so she hurriedly left a sentence: "The third aunt is too worried." Then he pulled Dongfang Yan and turned in the direction of the fourth aunt.
Maybe many years later, Lu Danqing will realize how well he knows the decision not to offend Dongfang Yan at this time, Dongfang Yan is not a person who can be kneaded by others, and everything is clearly realized after the event that is enough to decide some unknown fate, but the person who realizes it at that time is already too late.
At this time, some things have already laid the foundation in fate in a casual flashing thought, and there is no need to change.
After greeting the fourth aunt, Dongfang Han, and Dongfang Jing, Dongfang Yan calmly sat on the side of the main seat, opposite the second aunt and the third aunt, and on the side was the fourth aunt who had been cold and cold.
Dongfang Yan only sneered, this position was clearly reserved for her, while trying to see if she reacted well, she left a way to retreat and went down the steps, but it was not something that a brainless person like the third aunt did, the second aunt was really cunning like a fox.
From beginning to end, the fourth aunt looked cold and indifferent, but Dongfang Yan sensitively felt: this fourth aunt Ning Lanqin's eyes looking at her were too complicated and warm, mixed with many things that she couldn't understand for a while, but it was indeed no malice, Xu was loving, Xu was guilty, many emotions were entangled and disturbed, and she couldn't explain clearly.
Dongfang Jing has always been cramped and shyly smiling when she stands aside, it turns out that this sister is only a few hours younger than herself, giving people such a deep and calm feeling, which makes people unable to see through and grasp the elusiveness, but unexpectedly exudes a reassuring feeling.
What is laughable is that Dongfang Han actually walked on her little short legs Peugeot and made a half-salute, respectfully and respectfully, and called out without leakage: "Sister." β
Then when everyone couldn't react, he ran to Dongfang Yan and hugged her waist, blinking his big watery eyes, innocent and rarely articulate, and asked: "Jiejie, every time you have a good (Niangniang) apricot (line), the etiquette (all) will give Han Han reward (encouragement), will Jie Jie also give it?" β
What the? Inarticulate? There's no way that people haven't grown their teeth yet, don't care about these details.
The voice was unclear, the meaning of the expression was unusually clear, and the crowd was petrified and speechless.
Ning Lanqin held her forehead with one hand and made a headache, and Dongfang Jing said crampedly: "Han'er, don't talk nonsense." Dongfang Han stubbornly picked up Dongfang Yan's body, and he didn't dare to reach out to pull it when he was too close to Dongfang Yan, so he could only stand there far away and be anxious.
Dongfang Cheng couldn't help but turn his face to the side, he couldn't see his expression clearly, he could only see the suspicious tremor of his shoulders, Dongfang Shuo looked at Dongfang Yan with interest, as if he was curious how she could react when she was caught off guard, and the third aunt looked at the door as if she had nothing to do with herself, as if there were some beautiful flowers outside the door.
The second aunt quietly looked back at her son from an angle that no one was paying attention to, and her eyes clearly expressed: Stinky boy, you must have instigated it!
Dongfang Yan was not surprised by being hugged by surprise, and was stunned for a moment, but he was not panicked.
What should I do if I don't have a gift?
What should I do if I am not ready to spend money on the New Year?
What would you do with a singleton empty-handed?
Procrastination, prevarication, turning a blind eye?
However, Dongfang Yan was not panicked or cramped in the face of such an unexpected situation, raised his hand and touched the little head melon that only reached his waist, and rarely showed a little heartfelt smile.
But I didn't pay attention to Dongfang Jing, who was facing her, saw her smile, her bright eyes and bright teeth suddenly glowed, and she seemed to suddenly smell the fragrance of peach blossoms in the wind, but at this time, she wondered how could there be such a fragrance when it was almost autumn?
Dongfang Yan smiled at this time, not at all like the fake smile that had just been played, and the smile from the heart was scorching.
Dongfang Jing didn't check for a while, but she accidentally looked stunned? No one paid attention for a while.
At this time, I saw Dongfang Yan stretching out his hand and shaking it in front of Dongfang Han's eyes, and Dongfang Han held his fingers suspiciously.
Seeing that Dongfang Yan stretched out his hand, an orange and yellow frosted apricot with a sweet smell appeared in his hand out of thin air.
Dongfang Han was stunned for a moment, looked at the apricots and then at Dongfang Yan, seemed to be stunned for a moment, and finally grabbed it and laughed and threw himself in front of Ning Lanqin's knees, "Sui Sui (Niangniang), look at you!" β
Several people saw that the situation was developing in an unexpected direction, and instantly gathered their eyes in one place, and the whole hall was covered with frosted apricots only a small table in front of Steward Liu, stacked into a hill of dim sum, and an orange apricot was missing at the top of a certain plate, so the eyes were on Dongfang Yan and the coffee table only to turn back and forth a few times, but it was never clear when Dongfang Yan made a move.
Steward Liu's eyes under the gold-wire glasses were also imperceptible, and he paused, and his beard was brushed.
Dongfang Yan smiled deeply, without meaning to explain at all.
"Miss, please sit in the main seat."
Dongfang Yan just picked up the teacup at this time and didn't have time to enter, when he heard Steward Liu's voice sound, the second and third aunts' faces froze, and they looked at Steward Liu and didn't say anything after all.
Dongfang Yan didn't move, just smiled at this time, "Uncle, that's my father's seat." β
"But the master is not here." Steward Liu didn't seem to expect the girl to react like this, and only thought that when the master was away, the concubine should also sit in the main seat, no matter what was usual, such a scene similar to a family gathering, but it could highlight the atmosphere and system of a family.
Dongfang Yan nodded as if she didn't understand, moved her body, everyone thought she was about to sit on the main seat, but she shook her head again, didn't move, but just changed to a more comfortable position and half leaned on the back of the chair, raised her eyes lightly and smiled: "Let's be a father, okay?" β
It seems that the naΓ―ve answer is indeed a pun, one: remember who is the master of this family; Second, I am qualified to sit in this seat, but I don't sit to save face for you.
In fact, there is another meaning in my heart, just look at the arrangement, the main seat is high on the steps, and the next head forms an opposing trend, if you don't sit on it today, it is equivalent to pushing yourself to the cusp.
If so, I can't guarantee that the next few waves can lift her down, even if she sits firmly, she has to face a group of women who hide needles and yang and yin and are really tired, and she has not regarded herself as a person in this family, and she always feels that this cage is really restrained, maybe she will want to escape one day, and it is natural to maintain the status quo - no better.
The official frowned, but he couldn't say anything, what Dongfang Yan said was true and reasonable, so he stopped entanglement.
The sun is high, there is nothing to say, a few words are ready to disperse, at the end of the Fangfei Pavilion of the concubine was occupied by Dongfang Fei, originally thought that Dongfang Yan would not come back and would not take it seriously, but now if you move out again, it will inevitably have more rights and wrongs, and I wanted to arrange to go to the house to live for a while.
It's really a dismount, but Dongfang Yan doesn't eat this set, but many wings choose Yao Pavilion alone, saying that Yao Pavilion has no owner and should be lively and lively in the past few years, so it is better to live in her mother's house.
The housekeeper originally listened to the arrangement for Dongfang Yan to go to the concubine room and began to frown, but at this time, Dongfang Yan raised this issue but undoubtedly hit the middle, but it was not a bad etiquette, it seems that this method is more compromised, and even if it is agreed.
The third aunt's face was stiff, the Fangfei Pavilion where the concubine originally lived was occupied by Dongfang Fei, and she wanted to make it difficult for Dongfang Yan to live in the house, but instead she was pushed up to the attic of the main owner, and at this time she was just secretly annoyed and miscalculated.
So in the eyes of several aunts who watched Dongfang Yan out of the hall door, Dongfang Cheng took the lead and led Dongfang Yan out of the yard, and the children saw this situation and followed out, and now there are only a few aunts left in the hall, but it can't be said that there is a slanting wind and drizzle in secret.
